A Day In The Life Of A Crazy Cat Lady
Helena Jorgensen

5:00 am Breakfast time. This cannot occur one second later because your little furry friend is starving. In fact, they may waste away at any second so you better rush to their dish.

5:05 am Back to bed. Your cat is distracted by their breakfast which gives you time to fall asleep.

5:15 am Your snuggle buddy returns. Purring. Loudly. On your face probably.

7:00 am Time to get up and start your day. Nothing makes getting dressed more exciting than being hunted. Every bed you walk past is a hiding place for your furry predator and your ankles are their unsuspecting prey.

8:00 am You attempt to get some work done much to the chagrin of your needy little friend. They then decide to “help” by laying on top of whatever you were doing.

9:00 am Your cat finally settles in for their mid morning nap. This means you are free to use your laptop in peace.

12:30 pm You eat lunch while trying to fend off your cat (who wants to sniff whatever you have in order to determine whether you should share it with them or not).

2:00 pm You do some cleaning while your cat acts as if it’s a total coincidence that they are in the same room as you 85% of the time.

3:00 pm You take your cat off the counter for the 900th time that day though usually not before they have time to break something.

4:00 pm The alarm for feeding time starts going off (AKA constant meowing). There is no snooze button for the next hour as your lovely cat wants to make sure you don’t forget to feed them.

5:00 pm Finally dinner time (and some peace and quiet while your cat gobbles down their food).

6:00 pm You make your own dinner as your cat splits their time between napping and nearly tripping you as you try to navigate around them in the kitchen.

7:00 pm You do a few loads of laundry and race to finish folding before your cat finds the warm pile of clothes and decides to turn it into a nest.

8:00 pm You decide to fit in a quick workout and your cat decides to observe and judge you from a distance...or sit on your back the second you start doing push-ups.

10:00 pm You debate whether to lock your cat out of your room (and listen to them meow all night) or let them sleep with you (and inevitably have your toes attacked in the middle of the night).

10:05 pm You fall asleep with a happy cat purring at the end of your bed and decide that no matter how big of a pain cats are, you love being a crazy cat lady.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
